Chapter 102 wasn't very interesting.
Master Xuan believed that Lin Yuesha wouldn't dare, but he wasn't sure, so he planned to arrest her and find out the truth.
If he finds out that the little girl came to Zuifeng Tower and he catches her doing something wrong, he will definitely go to her parents' house and question them, to see how the Xiao family will have the face to laugh at him for failing to raise his daughter properly!
"Sir, this is Zuifeng Tower. What's the big deal if you run into someone you know?"
Yuanyang didn't take it seriously; everyone was busy having fun and had no time for small talk.
"No, she looks like a little girl I know well."
Lin Yuesha heard Master Xuan's words clearly. She secretly resented encountering such a scoundrel and had no choice but to quickly find a place to hide.
There were too many people and too many eyes downstairs, and there were no vacant rooms, so she could only quietly go upstairs.
Forced into a corner by Master Xuan, Lin Yuesha went upstairs and found a dark room at a corner, where she immediately hid.
She had just closed the door when Master Xuan came up with Yuanyang.
Lin Yuesha wiped a cold sweat from her brow and prayed that the fat man would get lost soon, otherwise Jiang Baozhu might not be able to handle things alone if she was gone for too long.
"Sir, what are you doing here? Let's go downstairs quickly."
Yuanyang tugged at Master Xuan's sleeve and pleaded softly, "This is a restricted area of Zuifeng Tower. Granny Feng has always forbidden us from coming up here."
"A restricted area? There are places like this?"
Master Xuan was a little confused. He had heard that it was a secret place and was very curious. He wanted to see what was so special about this place.
Yuanyang inwardly groaned, but in reality, it made no difference. This was Ziyuan's boudoir, and Granny Feng always forbade anyone to disturb her.
There was a proud and arrogant girl who insisted on competing with Ziyuan. She secretly came here, and not long after, she jumped off the top floor and committed suicide.
The girl named Ziyuan rarely showed her face, and on the few occasions she did appear, she was always veiled, making it impossible to see her face clearly.
However, the pair of beautiful eyes she revealed made Yuanyang feel ashamed and quite shocked. How to describe them? They were like a clear, cold snow mountain, a pure spring without a trace of impurity, crystal clear, yet able to see into your heart.
Yuanyang dared not look at Ziyuan, much less come to her territory. Every time she brushed past her, she felt like the mud on the ground, never to be cleaned up.
"Sir, there's nothing to see here, please come down!"
Yuanyang tried to persuade him gently, saying that if Master Xuan didn't listen, she was prepared to give up the deal.
"No, sir, I want to see what's special about Drunken Wind Pavilion!"
Master Xuan pushed Yuanyang aside and prepared to go inside to take a look.
"Then do as you please, but you'll have to bear the consequences yourself."
Upon seeing this, Yuanyang abandoned Master Xuan and ran downstairs as fast as she could.
After Yuanyang left, Master Xuan hesitated. He had just seen the girl who looked like a young maid go upstairs, so she must be hiding nearby.
He didn't want to offend Zuifenglou, and told himself that as long as he caught the man, he would leave as if he had never been there.
In the pitch-black room, Lin Yuesha remained motionless, as she was held captive in someone's arms and unable to move.
A person stood behind her, exuding a faint fragrance, and covered her mouth with a handkerchief.
Lin Yuesha struggled, twisting and turning, but to no avail; her body didn't even ripple slightly.
Yuanyang just made it clear outside the door that this is a restricted area of Zuifeng Tower, and unauthorized personnel are not allowed to enter.
Lin Yuesha stumbled in by accident; will she be murdered to silence her? If so, she'll haunt the culprit, that fatso, even as a ghost.
"Little girl, that idiot came looking for you. Did he realize who you are?"
The room was so quiet that Lin Yuesha and the person behind her could hear each other breathing.
The person's voice was deep, making it impossible to immediately discern whether they were male or female. "Am I right?"
How did you know I was a little girl?
Lin Yuesha shrank her neck. Could it be that her flat chest was so easily seen through?
"Men and women have different bone structures. I've been in Zuifeng Tower for so long, and I can't tell the difference between men and women. I don't deserve the title of the most beautiful courtesan."
Ziyuan smiled. The little girl had sneaked into Zuifeng Tower so brazenly; she was quite bold. Now that she had run into an acquaintance, should he lend her a hand? That way, the little girl would owe him a huge favor.
"So you are Miss Ziyuan."
Lin Yuesha understood; she had unintentionally entered Ziyuan's room.
Granny Feng made up an excuse that Ziyuan had guests, but it seems that she was just making things up; Ziyuan didn't actually receive any guests.
"Heh, you know me too?"
Ziyuan touched his face with one hand. Because he was so beautiful, he always left a deep impression on people. In fact, sometimes, beauty is not a good thing.
People generally judge by appearances, but he preferred bone structure to physical features.
Ziyuan touched the little girl's hand bones; indeed, they were the bone structure of a beauty.
"He's coming in, do you need my help?"
Ziyuan pinched Lin Yuesha's face and found it to be unexpectedly smooth and soft, very pleasant to touch. He actually found himself reluctant to let go of it.
"How can I help? How can I repay the favor I owe you?"
Lin Yuesha turned her head, feeling very depressed. Ever since she entered Zuifeng Tower, she had been taken advantage of by the girls in turn.
It's said that life is tough for women, but it's even tougher for good-looking men. Coming here is like entering a den of wolves.
Lin Yuesha knew in her heart that Ziyuan wouldn't be so kind, otherwise she wouldn't have silenced her and locked her up at the door.
If there's any time left for idle chatter, she would have already run away.
"Yes, you have to repay the favor, but I promise I won't make things difficult for you."
Ziyuan's voice was tinged with amusement. It was the first time he had seen such a self-aware little girl, and now he was curious about her purpose in coming.
Curiosity is not a good thing, and he hasn't been curious about people for a very, very long time.
"Oh well."
First, deal with the immediate troubles. For Lin Yuesha, Master Xuan is the real problem.
Although this chance encounter cannot be blamed on Master Xuan, Lin Yuesha has already harbored resentment towards the fat man for ruining her plans!
"Little girl from the Xiao family, come out here! I saw you running up here!"
The surroundings were completely silent. Master Xuan felt inexplicably guilty, so he decided to call out twice before entering the room to lure the person out.
"So, your surname is Xiao?"
Ziyuan seemed to be deep in thought. It's a good surname, and it sounds nice.
"Yes, that's right."
Lin Yuesha didn't explain. The Xuan family treated her as her stepbrother's younger sister and always thought she was the Xiao family's sister. So, Lin Yuesha simply went along with it.
"What's your maiden name?"
While Master Xuan was shouting outside, Ziyuan continued to ask questions.
What is her maiden name? Lin Yuesha didn't want to tell Ziyuan her real name from the bottom of her heart, and thought she would just make one up.
"I bet you're trying to make something up, little girl? Like, Xiaoya, Erniu'er or something."
In the darkness, Shion's eyes shone inexplicably, like glittering black gems.
Lin Yuesha was speechless at how shrewd even a flower girl could be. She explained, "My name is indeed Xiaoya."
Before her mother, Chen, and Xiao Chenggui got married, Lin Yuesha didn't have a name. Everyone in Chenjia Village, including her family, called her "Little Girl."
